Localization of chloride in leaf cells of the halophyte Suaeda maritima by silver precipitation
Chloride has been localized in leaf cells of Suaeda maritima by the silver precipitation technique. The major site of precipitation was the cell vacuole although deposits were found at other sites, particularly in the chloroplasts of plants grown without salt. Considerable loss of chloride from the...

Summary: | Chloride has been localized in leaf cells of Suaeda maritima by the silver precipitation technique. The major site of precipitation was the cell vacuole although deposits were found at other sites, particularly in the chloroplasts of plants grown without salt. Considerable loss of chloride from the tissue occurred during the preparative procedure and the validity of the technique is discussed. |
